Hand engineering work from Smartsheet to Jira
PMOs and project managers run cross-functional projects in Smartsheet. When work needs engineering — a bug fix, integration build, infra request, or new feature — it has to land in Jira with the right project, epic, and sprint. Unito creates Jira issues from Smartsheet rows automatically and keeps both sides in sync.
Turn Smartsheet rows into Jira issues automatically
A Smartsheet row marked for engineering creates a matching Jira issue with assignee, sprint, and story points set. No manual ticket creation.
Connect portfolio structure to engineering structure
Map Smartsheet sheets and parent rows to Jira projects, epics, and stories. Engineering streams stay structured the way Jira expects without forcing PMs to learn epic hierarchies.
Keep engineers in Jira for every handed-off ticket
Engineers work tickets in Jira without logging into Smartsheet to update status, log effort, or chase requirements. Updates flow back to the project row automatically.
Advanced syncing use cases for Jira and Smartsheet workflows
Roll up sprint progress to portfolio
A Jira story links to a Smartsheet row carrying sprint, components, labels, and blocking relationships. Status, assignee, and comments flow both ways so the row reflects live engineering progress for PMO review.
Give teams visibility without a Jira seat
Non-engineering teams (legal, finance, ops) read engineering status, blockers, and resolution dates in the Smartsheet they already use. No Jira license, no status meeting.
Surface engineering work to the PMO
Smartsheet rows link directly to specific Jira stories rather than mirroring the full epic structure. PMOs see exactly the engineering work that affects the portfolio. Engineers keep their epic hierarchy intact.

You connect Jira and Smartsheet in Unito, pick a Jira project and a sheet, then map Jira fields to Smartsheet columns. For the full walkthrough, follow our Jira + Smartsheet integration guide.
Yes. Smartsheet’s Jira Connector is a paid premium add-on that syncs Jira issues with sheet rows, one- or two-way per field, for Jira Cloud, Server and Data Center. It doesn’t sync attachments, and a Jira system admin has to set it up.
Yes. Unito syncs Smartsheet with Jira Data Center or Jira Server as well as Jira Cloud, reaching a self-hosted instance over HTTPS via a firewall port, reverse proxy or on-premise agent. Self-hosted Jira is a premium integration on Enterprise plans; Basic and Pro customers contact Unito.
It’s true bidirectional sync. Jira summary, status, assignee and priority sync two-way with Smartsheet rows, as do primary, parent and custom columns. Flow direction and per-field direction are set separately, so even a one-way flow can update fields both ways.
Jira custom fields map to Smartsheet custom columns when they use a supported type: text, textarea, float, date, date time, select list, checkbox, radio button, URL or user picker. Each mapping can sync one-way or two-way.
Not by default. A Jira flow syncs one Jira project; syncing several Jira projects in one flow isn’t self-serve and needs Unito sales to enable it. Rules can still limit which work items sync by status, assignee or tag.
Connecting Jira takes admin permissions on the Jira account; after that, project-level admin rights are enough to build each flow. Setup in Unito is no-code and point-and-click, so you don’t need a developer.
Yes. Unito syncs attachments and dependencies between Jira work items and Smartsheet rows, so row dependencies carry across while your sheet keeps its portfolio-level view. For copied attachments, viewers don’t need a licence in both tools to open the synced file.
